Estátua colunar de um rei

ca. 1150–60
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 304
Esta figura de um rei não identificado é a única estátua completa que sobreviveu à destruição do claustro da abadia real de Saint-Denis. A auréola distingue esse rei como um santo. Sob o energético abade Suger, a abadia, mausoléu dos reis franceses, foi reconstruída (1122–1151) no estilo que na Idade Média era chamado de Francês e que logo depois ficou conhecido como Gótico. A integração de uma figura de pé sobre uma coluna cilíndrica é uma das características distintas do novo estilo gótico.
